This year’s event also promises plenty of star power, from Flyers alumni Bob Kelly and Todd Fedoruk to former defensive tackle for the Philadelphia Eagles and Co-Host on WIP 94.1, Hollis Thomas. Guests can look forward to a visit from SWOOP, the beloved Eagles mascot, as well as a few friends from the Philadelphia Zoo! Other special guests include three winners of Miss American Teenager 2014 – Mary Grace Wilson (Teenager), Maria Kapustina (Junior), and Stephanie Brilliant (Preteen) – alongside Miss Metropolitan NYC Julia Rae Schlucter.

The ConKerr PJ Party is the perfect function to teach about love, acceptance, charity and encouragement. Therefore, there will be a Group Challenge for any clubs or organizations throughout the Greater Philadelphia region to see who can get the most individuals to attend the event!
